Russia hasnt been a superpower since the fall of the berlin wall. They are a regional power at best.

Their economy is very weak and the war is apparently costing the russians £20 billion per day. They are on a timer and they need to end things quick before it totally ruins them.

Their military is a paper tiger as well - its modernised a lot in recent years, but its still riddled with corruption and incompetent leaders.

I class them as a superpower based on the fact they have the most nukes.

Patience? Don't you realise its mostly men on this forum? We don't do patience.  

Yeah, we aint doctors.

I think Putin seriously underestimated the Ukrainian sitcom actor-turned President. 
He probably thought Zelensky would be on the first train out of there and it would have been done and dusted within a couple of days. 
 

Russia’s failure so far means that the longer it takes, the weaker Putin will be amongst his own side. 
 

All IMO, obviously. 

If it gets drawn out, it would certainly make Russia look weak.

Any response by any country is self-interest. That's essentially what foreign policy is.

The EU being a state, i would want protection and security from it Andy.

Russia appear to be struggling a little, i thought a superpower would have advanced more than this. Could be western propaganda though, maybe Vlad is buying some time. 

Where's the EU in all this, the response from them is all self interest. Germany - gas, Italy- fashion etc, EU do nothing on the world stage, it's just a vip club.   

'Are we there yet ?'

Hopefully it's Ashley, but whoever it is, i would like to take the academy way from now on. A sprinkle of experience, to help the youth, no need to splash any cash. It's the stability Ashley could bring, is what i want.. Plus he won't get mugged off in the transfer market, like we historically do. UTR

then we wait patiently until we do hear something?

That's fine, but we have not been waiting ten days for the news we want, it's been months.

More stewards, with better training. When we scored against brum, the last pitch invader was a big lad that took 5 minutes to jog over from the north stand. 

What if we hear nothing friday ?

The Administrators said at the time that it would be around 10 working days - that's Friday.

I've read the same information IE, i'm just worried friday is imminent.

After Morris and Gibson sorted out their differences, i thought the wheels would turn a little bit quicker than this. I know we need to be patient, but don't they realise a named bidder would give us all a massive lift players/staff/fans alike. Could be the difference, come the end of the season. 'Gerron wi it' ffs  

That is Reacher from the books, tall,mean,fearless and a great investigator. Great adaption for me.

Sorry, late to the party. So Steve Gibson and Mel Morris have agreed to sort the issues between them, off their own backs, and the EFL is trying to claim some credit for it. The EFL about a month ago ' it would be great if we could get all parties to meet'   Me ' yeah, no poo sherlock '.

Great news, i now possess a smile just as grand as Festy ?

Festy going, will provoke an angry response, I've not heard one bad thing about the kid, everybody likes him.

I've had enough, i felt if we could keep our kids, we had a fighting chance, whatever league we ended up in. Now that they are leaving one by one, it's hard to keep positive. The admins are useless, continue to keep Wayne in the dark and lie, they are just self-serving, dragging it out for more money. The efl are cowards, Gibson will not relent until we are buried, Wycombe do not have a case. Duck em all, Phoenix club it is. We will fight to the end, but all we have left is a fight.

Incoming fine for the melee at the end, on our desk by Monday morning.

This bid hopefully accelerates the other bidder's intentions, thankyou  for the bid, gives me hope. UTR

Imminently, oh no, i'm going on holiday in August.

Back at the BBG, they were the days. I remember when they introduced cheerleaders one season, used to take apple in pocket back then.

Best player, recently though. A good five games now.
